You wanna see a house rape a woman? No seriously. That about sums this one up.
Proteus IV is a computer that is way too smart for his own good. So smart in fact, it figured early on that as a computer you won't get much action. Alas, as a super genius machine, sometimes you have to take that pussy. So Proteus, being the creeper that he is, finds a way to beam himself into his creators' home. Once in the home, he makes the most of his time by overcoming the homes' security/automation system. And from there on out, this PC turned psycho boyfriend makes Julie Christie's life a living nightmare.
It's not as bad as it sounds though. In fact, this movie was WAY better than i expected. I threw this on expecting to wade through dated dialogue and effects in hopes of finding some abstract samples for my production. But nay i say. This one actually had me interested throughout. For the most part, the acting is good and the writing is pretty un-corny. There are some genuinely tense moments and the fear of technology theme is still relevant. I won't go as far as to saying this is cinematic brilliance, but if you are like me and get your rocks off on finding forgotten, bizarre movies, this one is worth a watch for sure.
Demon Seed gets $5 out of $10. Not an amazing movie but entertaining. Producers looking for samples may want to consider coughing up more $ for it.
